Prices paid to U.S. factories, farmers and other goods producers fell 1.2 percent last year, the best inflation showing in decade at the wholesale level. Last year's drop in the producer price index -- capped by a 0.2 percent decline in December -- followed a 2.8 percent increase in 1996, the Labor Department said. The yearly decline was the largest since a 2.3 percent drop in 1986, and the first since a 0.1 percent dip in 1991, the government said.
